| Spinach Spinacia oleracea
In fertile soil, enriched with organic matter high in nitrogen, plant as early as ground can be worked. Spinach likes cool weather. Plant again in late August for a fall crop. Sow thinly, about ˝ inch deep. Thin seedlings to one to three inches apart.
Harvest leaves as soon as they are big enough to eat. When the plant is starting to look old, cut whole plant back to one to two inches high to stimulate growth. If they begin to bolt, harvest and freeze the whole crop.
Each packet contains four grams or approximately 320 seeds.
